First, you'll walk through the three plans, Workforce Payroll, Premium, and Elite, so you know which features sit behind which tier before you pay.
Then, you'll meet the new Payroll AI Agent, which texts your team for their hours, flags anything that looks off, and drafts the payroll run so all you do is review and approve.
Along the way, you'll learn why the Agent runs per employee, so you can use it for your hourly team while your salaried folks stay on Auto Payroll.
After that, you'll post a job with the new recruiting tools, publish it to ZipRecruiter, and let QuickBooks pull the key details out of every resume for you.
Next, you'll onboard a new hire who fills in their own W-4, I-9, and direct deposit, so the paperwork is done right without you keying anything in.
Then, you'll build reusable HR Workflows, like an onboarding checklist, and assign each step to the right person on your team.
You'll also create an employee handbook, or any document your team needs to sign, right inside QuickBooks.
Finally, you'll see how performance reviews work, where an employee's answers flow straight to their manager.
By the end, you'll know exactly what's new in QuickBooks Workforce and which plan is right for your business.
